The 00s called, they want their insults back.

(Also this isn't even anime this is just a meme?)

But those were achieved with violence, and before 1900

You mean indigo?

Yeah, buying a car, not a Neo Nazi Symbol.

Didn't know that exists, and that needs more marketing. I literally have a "Daily Wikipedia Article" thing and never came across it. And maybe a different name, like Simplified Wikipedia, because I thought you meant something different.

Problem is they can't read Wikipedia articles in the first place. A lot of it, in particular anything STEM, is higher level reading.

What you're advocating for is the same as dropping off a physics textbook at an elementary school.

Same person who saw most American adults have a 6th grade reading level or lower?

Honestly that's the reason I thought it was a good idea at least. Might actually give them a place to start learning from and improve.

Probably was more like this:

Never expected the place known for nude beaches and a president who married a pedophile to be one that implemented this kind of block.

I have to believe it's for cost reasons. It's a very strange downgrade considering they already released a literally upgraded OLED version of the Switch 1.

I actually normally play on the TV, but my wife has always preferred handheld, and it wouldn't be fair for only one of to get a Switch. And the 2 came out literally on her birthday, so even less so. So I got her a Steam Deck instead and, have to say, should have gotten it sooner. It's essentially a Switch 2 - no limit recordings, OLED, more power, etc. more surprising is that it was lighter than the Switch 1, so she's really happy for that, and I have a PC so at least it'll tide us over this gen until an OLED version is released.

(Not to mention I built a cartridge dumper and dumped my versions of BOTW and TOTK to play Ryujinx. Have had 60fps, 4k, jaggy free versions for free for years, so the 10€ cost to get them on Switch 2 was just extra insulting. Those should have been free updates to make up for the lack of games at launch)

Dollar hasn't recovered value tho

Cow is double agent actually

Oh you misunderstood, I already know all this.

The comic is to point out why it's difficult to grow adoption of a non-android / Apple smartphone.

Even what you think is a simplified explanation is, unfortunately, too complex for most as well. Tech literacy is REALLY bad in many places. Most don't know what an "operating system" is, in many cases don't know what a hard drive is (of any kind). Software is basically magic to them. Your explanation is great for people who already know the basic concepts, but sadly most of the population isn't even at that level.

And this isn't only the elderly btw, younger people are just as clueless these days because many schools don't do computer classes anymore.

That there's this just opposition must mean quite a decent chunk of politicians and wealthier people may have used this service.

I think it's just ancestry

I have too but skipped it until they bring out an OLED version

Sounds like they're lacking UI, UX people on their team, along with someone good at marketing, and money overall.

I could help with marketing and fundraising, but at the very least the UI and branding would have to be fixed first. I guess if the team was contacted if they'd like a person to fix up the onboarding process and an artist to help make a new mascot I know one who would do it. Actually what would be better would be 2 mascots, to go with the whole "making friends" motif.

Sign up definitely needs to be by interest after going through language, since you're right that the first option would totally nope most people out.

Could be worse. Could be you're in the early 90s with only a 56k modem.

They have 3 dicks and 4 arms usually
